Jewelry Design Inspiration: Bubbles

I am currently obsessed with bubbles. It all started a few years ago when I walked into Mix, the fabulous Alain Ducasse restaurant above the Mandalay Bay hotel. Hanging from the soaring ceilings are hundreds of strands of beautiful glass bubbles. They immediately remind me of an art deco ceiling fixtures draped with crystals spheres. The result is breathtakingly cool. Ultra chic and yet sentimental. Who didn’t love blowing bubbles as a child?

Last week I met with my stonecutters in NYC. Discussing ideas for my jewelry line, Charmed Circle, the first thing that came to mind was beautiful, faceted spheres, in various colors of semi precious stones. Shiny, colorful, reflective bubbles. 

Yes! They all smile and nod. It can be done! Eureka!

The jewelry is in the works. Stay tuned to see if my inspiration comes to realization.
